Translators Support Varying Voltage Levels of Next-gen Applications
November 9, 2005 |Estimated reading time: Less than a minute
SAN JOSE, Calif. — Pericom Semiconductor has broadened its translator line with advanced Universal Level Shifter (ULS) technology, allowing customers to use a bi-directional automatic direction sensor to support the different voltage levels of next-generation systems.
The PI4ULS3V16(M) and PI4ULS3V08(M) family of voltage translators can translate signals with a data rate up to 16 Mbits/s under industrial temperature conditions. The devices can drive signals 10 to 20" on either side of the device, depending on capacitive load, frequencies and the selected driver's strength. Each port features an individual supply voltage that can be set for 1.4 to 3.6 V. The devices also can be used as a 16- or 8-bit bus driver with 12-mA drive strength per bit. Because of their small footprint, the voltage translators target the mobile handset market.
